“…In the Crouch case, heart data rate from a biometric watch worn by the victim along with the paired smartphone was used to disprove the alibi of the main suspect (BBC News, 2021). UK's Mitesh Patel case is another example where data from the suspect's Fitbit showed intense physical activity following the female victim's death, contradicting his testimony (Franqueira and Horsman, 2020). Recognizing the growing importance of adequately assessing mobile and wearable devices, Scotland Yard has announced plans to strengthen its resources for collecting data from wearables and IoT devices, namely FitBit, doorbells, and others (France, 2021).…”

When computer systems are increasingly important for our daily activities, cybercrime has created challenges for the criminal justice system. Data can be hidden in ADS (Alternate Data Stream) without hindering performance. This feature has been exploited by malware authors, criminals, terrorists, and intelligence agents to erase, tamper, or conceal secrets. However, ADS problems are much ignored in digital forensics. Rare researches illustrated the contact artifacts of ADS timestamps. This paper performs a sequence of experiments from an inherited variety and provides an in-depth overview of timestamp transfer on data hiding operations. It utilizes files or folders as original media and uses the timestamp rules as an investigative approach for the forensic exchange analysis of file sets. This paper also explores timestamp rules using case examples, which allow practical applications of crime scene reconstruction to real-world contexts. The experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of temporal attributes, help digital forensic practitioners to uncover hidden relations, and trace the contact artifacts among crime scenes, victims, and suspects/criminals.
